Bricius Family -House Tristan-
Bricius family was the most powerful family on planet Alba, WS equivalent of Scotland, until their decimation during Emperor Vorios' dark reign. When Myrcalus took the throne after the death of the false emperor, Bricius family under the helm of Magnus Bricius--Douglas Bricius's grandfather--aided the revolt to avenge their destruction that included annihilation pro-Vorios families. Though not as powerful and influential as its previous times, Bricius family had regained their prestige and wealth on par the standards of Highborn families currently. One of the latest heir was Douglas Bricius, a scientist warrior who volunteered for Nexus after graduating from Alba University and his military training.Fergus Bricius, Camilla Bricius, Douglas Bricius (current), Helena Bricius.

Dawnwing Family -House Azrion-

Small history
One of the oldest militant families on Cassus. The dawnwing line has always served the people of the commonwealth, and then the dominion after it's founding for generations. Generals, Tacticians, ICI agents, their history lies paved in the achievements of it's bloodline and what they've done to help the dominion move towards a better, brighter tomorrow. Some even falling into history as the dominions Heroes when time, conflict, and circumstance demanded such roles be filled. A legacy continued under the reign of It's current patriarch, and who's sons Seron and Jalorn have already added their contributions and savant like talent to their chosen fields. Unfortunately nexus, has proven problematic... for as both sons vanished due to unknown circumstances the future of the family has fallen to his last surviving son. What is to become of the line, remains to be seen.

History:
A mostly quiet and unknown family, the Eaviors have done little to expand their power and influence until the past few generations. For the most part, they have been satisfied with their status and wealth until the prospects of a Luminai coming from the family arose. The Eaviors began their fight for power through marriages and children, leading to a family tree that crossed a few too many branches. Now the main branch of the family is left to dwindle, sitting heavy on the shoulders of a bastard who is stuck between devoting her life completely to the church, or giving in to her family's wishes and continuing the family line.

Kirijo Family -House Korol-
Although the original founder of the family - Martos Kirijo - was a noted engineer and the founder of Kirijo Arms, he is more known for the philanthropic work he did after he retired. Unfortunately it has been many generations since the Kirijo family last produced someone capable of running the business directly, but they've payed well for decent management and have managed to avoid running it into the ground. On the other hand, as befit members of House Korol, the Kirijo Family has a long (although not spotless) history of devotion to the Dominion. Whether that be in the Legions, through charities, or in other ways that suited people's talents, the importance of serving the Dominion's greater good something that has been successfully passed down.

Miuro Family-House Korol-
The House Miuro is chiefly devoted to serving the Dominion as a developer and manufacturer of arms and aerospace technology. Its current head-of-house, Syro, served in the Dominion Special Forces for a couple decades before retiring and fully devoting himself to mobilizing his family's resources and shifting it into a spacefaring House. Syro's friends and colleagues Foningo and Rizad, whom he served alongside for years in the DSF, have joined their respective Collective and Clan to the family, serving as the research-industrial and militia components of House Miuro. Syro and Lartia have one daughter, Kona, who is the heir and also a captain in the House militia.Known members:Syro Miuro, Lartia Miuro (née Lucanus), Kona Miuro

Noth Laima family- House Chaul -

One of the oldest Cassian families, members of Noth Laima were known for their legacy of exceptional scientists. Members of Noth Laima family have been serving Cassus and Dominion for centuries, at least one member participating in construction and maintenance of war technology somewhere in the key battles. Previously strict with marriage rules, Noth Laima soon found itself at odds and loosened it's rules.

Depsite that, because of the strong inbreeding tradition in the early days members of Noth Laima family have distinct features that may not be spotted anywhere else. Most of them have golden eyes and either ginger or blonde hair. And most importantly - somehow most of the members lean towards science.

Unfortunately due to the war efforts and financial struggles, as well as enthusiasm that led most members to lethal end, there are only two members of Noth Laima house who survived - Revanoh Noth Laima and her five year old son and child prodigy, Adrian Noth Laima.

Shiboush Family -House Evindra-
The Shiboush family is a little known family. Those who would know them could only tell you stories or rumors of ICI blacksites in which straying government officials would disappear to. Their involvements in these sites are connected with information gathering and executions.Faydra "Brook" Shiboush

Sinclair Family -House Aziron-

The Sinclairs are a "lesser" Family of Highborn nobility based in the city of Scaldaferri on Cassus. They are sworn to the service of the Family Pelant, who is in turn sworn to the Family Montgolfier.

The Sinclairs have been in a state of political and financial decline for years. The family's closeness with the Lowborn community has won them very few friends politically, with many dismissing them as "bleeding hearts" or only barely being Highborn themselves. Combined with a lack of male heirs to take control of the house, the family's intended matriarch being on Nexus and a formal declaration of hostilities from longtime rival the Dellaminder Family back on Cassus, the Sinclair's face an uncertain future and possible extinction.

The Specter line can be traced back long before the Eldan arrived. However the Founding Patriarch is considered to be Jonnet Specter who retired from a distinguished military career and built a large financial conglomerate. Through extensive political connections he negotiated the marriage of one of his daughters into House Tristan. Military service was expected of all of Jonnet's descendents and many earned high honors. Others made their name in business. The Family has amassed a fortune that continues to provide a very high standard of living for its progeny even today.

The Family's rising star was snuffed when many prominent family members serving as officers with Serrick Brightland chose to side with that traitor. Even though the family vehemently denounced their errant relations, future military appointments dried up. The notable exception being Domack Specter who enlisted (scandalous!) and rapidly rose through the NCO ranks with service distinguished enough that they had no choice but to offer him a commission.

Domack aside the last several generations have been known for its decadent indolance due in no small part to the immortal Specter Trust. Rumors persist that a small branch has immigrated to Nexus.

Triius Family [ x ] -House Galen-
The Triius family is most known for their galactic publishing company which produces books, magazines, and newspaper. Most notable is the infamous The Conqueror's Herald, with it's equally infamous gossip/rumor sections run by Madame Woxcroft.Sarelle Triius, Deminius Triius

Valesius Family-House Korol-

House Valesius is notable for its exemplary and long service as military leaders and stalwart warriors on the battlefield.

Venator Family -House Valesius-
The Venator family has long ties to the arctic death world Tichonderoga as Mining and Water magnates which they have done successfully as well as surviving the harsh environment and indeed thriving in it. Offworld suitors has lead to the family having connections in other places of the Dominion with its current head being the Keeper of Technology in House Valesius.
Erallia Valiantheart, daughter of Mary and William Valiantheart, sister to Elric Valiantheart, was born on Cassus, brought into a beautiful mansion with an orchard that stretched for what seemed like miles away near Essexton. Her family was most known for their legendary hard cider. Erallia Valiantheart is currently the only known heir and survivor of the Valiantheart fortune and estate.Alexander Venator, Aurea Venator, Edward Venator,Erallia Venator*(*formally Valiantheart*), Lainathiel Vespillo, Morvael Vesperillo, Racan Lessiera.

Wesshire Family -House Evindra-
There are very few remaining members of the Wesshire family. They were noted explorers. Barenius Wesshire lead a small expedition to SA-161 and claimed the moon for Cassus and the Dominion. He created a small settlement in a biome on the moon and named the biome after his family - Wesshire. SA-161 was mostly kept as a mining settlement rather than a habitable zone.

The most notorious member is Maxamillon Wesshire. At the time of the SA-161 uprising, Maxamillon was the leader of Wesshire. Rumor has it that he harbored Exile fugitives (The exact number is unknown and honestly who cares) and he and his family was struck down by the glorious hand of the Dominion Armada for their treason. No one of Wesshire lineage was said to have escaped the culling. Without proper ownership in place, the SA-161 project was dismantled that same year and any remaining Wesshire citizens were brought about the Destiny.

Any remaining Wesshires would be distant cousins or second cousins to Maxamillon.
